Mr LORDS AND GENTL EMEN , THE Royal Navy have an AMICABLE SCHOOL for the orphans and children of their officers, and it is well supported and managed by officers of high rank in that branch of our service. The week after Easter, I propose to call a Meeting of our Club, to take into consideration the justice of forming " A MILITARY AMICABLE SCHOOL." Aristocratical influence has opposed such a noble and patriotic Institution. But union is power, and the love we all bear to our service will g ive us the victory, and prevent poste r ity ca lli ng s h ame upon us for ottr present negligence and timidity. After Easter, our fox-hunting friends will he in town, to give us their kind assistance ; bold riders have a good eye for the country ; good sportsmen, generally speaking, are good officers. But to the point. I c all on W. T. W., of Southwold, stml all our other friends, to be up and stirring, and to t a k e th e field, in b e half of such a patriotic Institu!ir.;n. Mark ! His Ilo3al Highness, the late Duke of Kent, was the Patron of Regimental Schools for Soldiers'Children. A petition from the Officers of the Bri tish Army, praying her Majesty. our Most Gracious Queen Victoria, to become the Patron of the School, I f ee l con fid ent w i ll obtain the kind and gracious reply of " La Reine le veut ;" and those magic words will be responded to by every loyal heart in the kingdom. Call to mind that King Charles the Second es t a bli s h e d " Chelsea, " because that Merry Monarch lived with his people, and had ample proof that our Army is as firm and loyal to the Crown as it is brave in the battle-field.

Yesterelsy evening a electing of the trades of London wag hell at the Mechanics' Institution, to receive the statements of three delegates from the Glasgow Trades' Association, in ex position of the principles of that body, and in refutation of the foul calumnies propagated by the London Press in reference to the late trials at Edinburgh. The meeting was so very numerous that considerable interrustion was occasioned at the commencement of the proceedings by the extreme pressure of the people at the doors. Hundreds who could not effect ad inisaion were constrained to abandon all hope of witnessing the proceedings. The respectable appearance of the vast body of those present reflected great credit on the trades: the intease interest which seemed to affect every individual mani fested a deep-seated sympathy w ith the victims of legal tyranny, and the regularity and decorum which characterised the dis cussion, notwithstand:ng the excitement that preveiled, were tonics of pleasurable comment on the platform. Mr. Fergus O'Connor, on being recognised by the assem bly, was loudly cheered. Mr. ROEERT HEARTWELL having been moved and seconded as Chairman, was received with repeated cheer's, and uom menced by observing that the meeting was convened for the purpose of giving their brother-tradesmen, Messrs. Cuthbertsen, M'Nish, and Campbell, delegates from the Glasgow Trades' Association, an opportunity of exposing the revolting charges brought against the Cotton-spinners' Association, and of thereby counterecting the gross calumnies and flagrant mis-statements of the LOndon press in refers :e; to.tllo recent trials. The trades of G 1 agow depetod these members of their body to state to the tradesmen of this coun try and Ireland the principles and objects of the Glasgow As sociation, and to expose the gross partiality of the metropolitan press, which gave with minute accuracy the evidence in behalf of the prosecution at the late trial, and suppressed altogether the testimony in support of the defence.—( Lovel cries of '` Shame, shame.") In the outset, his conviction was that the men were innocent; and he was now fully confirmed in his opinion by the clear and lucid statements made by the dele gates to the Trades' Committee of London, of which he was a member. When he took the chair there, some short time ago, he expressed his opinion as to the character of the Association in Glasgow, which he felt assured was instituted, and subse quently acted on the principles of its institution, to promote the moral and physical advantages of the people. The ex penditure of the funds of the Association was sufficient evi dence of the foul slanders of the hireling press and heartless profit-mongers, who branded them with being the patrons and encouragers of assassination.—( Hear. ) The meeting would presently hear from the authorised organs of the Association a detailed account of the manner in which they had ex pended their funds—they would hear that 4,000!.had been given to aid the emigration of indigent tradesmen, to other countries, where they might find a better market for their labour than in this boasted land of freedom.—( Cheers. ) Hundreds of pounds were voted to assist the victims of oppression —that the Association in question was not circumscribed in its sphere of action by a mere locality, but extended protection to their fellow-tradesmen in the country, on various emergencies.— Repeated cheers.) Such conduct afforded awkward evidence of a wish to encourage atrocities, or even crimes of a more mitigated description. He felt assured that no Trades' Asso ciation encouraged murder. It was a crime at which their feelings revolted ; but he knew that dastardly combinations existed, which excited the indignation and called forth the execrations of every honest man—he alluded to combinations of cowardly because anonymous slanderers of the public press, who imputed crimes to the Cotten-spinners, of which ho knew they were innocent ; but, he trusted the day was not far dis tant, when his brother-tradesmen, by a determined advocacy of their rights and combined moral action, would teach the hirelings that, however they might dissent from tho views of the operatives, they should not malign their motives.—( En thusiastic cheering.) He anticipated a favourable result from a parliamentary enquiry, which he was assured, would acquit Trades' Associations in general of the charges made by the press, arid that great combinator, He would not trespass further on their attention, as he knew they wished to hear the delegates. He hoped, as these gentlemen would have to address the meeting at length other speakers would he Lief in their observations. Mr. M'Nrsir (one of the delegates) was a cotton spinner, and it' was with painful feelings he appeared before them, in consequence of the calumnies of the press, which had been so well described by the Chairman. The Cotton-spinner's' Also. ciotie n had been for eight months held up to odium—the mem bers of it had been branded as midnight murderers—calumnies the most foul had been circulated, for purposes which were best known to the authors of them.—( Hear.) lie did not wish to say a word against tile authors of them, for his poor friends were now in an awful position, and conciliation would holikely to be more serviceable to them.—(Hear.) Despite, however, the calumnies to which he had alluded, ho was proud to be a member of the Cotton spinners' Association, for it wss con sistent with right principles, and with rectitude of conduct, and he would challenge inquiry into the system under which it was managed—he cared not whether it took place in or out of Parliament—he did not fear the result.—( Cheers.) He would now give a brief account of the principles on whiede the Association had been formed. In 1809 the cotton-spinners of the West of Scotland formed themselves into an Union s their regulations were printed, anti sanctioned by is e, jus tices of the peace. The Union opposed the reductions of the prices by the employers successfully. This alarmed them, and they applied to the civil authorities. The combination laws w, re then brought to bear on the Union, the members of which did not know of the existence of those laws, Some of them were, however, arrested and imprisoned, and the Union was broken up—but the members of it had tasted the sweets of Union, and they did not diasolve themselves—(Cheers)— they united secretly.—( Hear, hear.) But who were the causes of this secrecy ?—(Hear.) Violence was not, how ever, the object of this secrecy, but self-defence.—( Hear. ) The number of apprentices was great; the number of pincers also pressed hard on the operatives; and the masters, when they were opposed, were enabled, from them, to make a choice of workmen ; but when a man was known to take a part against the employers who desired to oppress, he wee im mediately marked, he was turned out of his employment, and a circular was sent to the other masters, who refused to receive him, and he was thus left to starve,--( Hear, hear.) He (Mr. M`Nish) had been a victim to this mode of treatment ; he had been for three years compelled to walk the streets of Glasgow, having a wife and children dependent on him for support; and on his return there ; he expected only to meet the same fate. But when men of character, and good workmen, were proscribed and driven to desperation, and when men of bad character were employed in their places, could the Association be blamed for retaliation ?_( Hear, hear, hear,) The Asiociation had thus managed its affairs secretly until 1818—he could not say pre cisely how they managed it before that time, but he had no doubt that it had been conducted in the same way as it was before he joined it in 1819, at which time the articles were read to him, in which he had seen nothing which was illegal, and he had, therefore, in accordance with them, pledged him self to stand by the majority in endeavouring legally to do the utmost to obtain a just remuneration for their labour, to pay all demands which might be made on bins for the assistance of other bodies in their difficulties, and the members of his own body, when they wished to go elsewhere to lock for employ ment.—( Hear.) These were the principles of the ,Associa tion, and the mode in which it was managed was, that a dele gate was chosen from each factory, betsinning with t h e fi rst person empl o y e d t h ere, and going over tbem all. These dole, gates met weekly, and their names were selected faem those which were put into a hat, who formed the Central Committee, and thus were tiaually chosen the President, the Treasurer, and the Secretary. At any period, however, when disputes arose with employers, nine Directors were selected, three from each district, who were termed the Finance Committee. The formation of this Committee was the foundation of the charge of having a Secret Select Committee,—(}sear.) It was secret to the public as for as the numbars could keep it so, for it was certain that if the names of the Committee becasno known, that they would lose their employment.— ( Hear.) But it was rot otherwise a Secret or R Select Committee.—( blear.) So the Association had gone on till 1824 ; but he would here ad vert to some transactions which had been given in evidence against the Association, but whirls had occurred before any of the parties except one had been mesnbers of it.—(}tear.) Many struggles had taken place with employers, as indi viduals, and with respect to this he would refer the meeting to the accusation as to the shooting at M'Quarry--..-Sbis oc curred in 1818, when Mr. Bowes proposed it reduction of wages, to whiel the Association woold not consent. At this time there were not one litmdred and fifty members of the Union. They had no funds and no conteoul. The strike, however, took place, and the places of the parties striking were occupied by new hatls, and the old hands were left destitute; but they received no support from the Association, which had no funds at the time. The per sons who supplanted them, however, we-re characters whioh would not get employment in ordinary times. In all trades there were dissipated characters and bad workmen, and amongst the cotton spinners there were as many as in any other; but when a strike took place, these persons were lauded as the best possible men—they were armed and privileged— they were considered as the advocates of free labour, and when thus supported, into what mischief could they not and did they not bring the regular operatives ? It wag well known what the regular and old hands suffered in eaonsequenee of their resistance to the taunts and the insults of these new hands.—( Hear.) But in this ease to which he referred two or three of the old hands had private quarrels witi.;, tile new, who w, re engaged at Mr. Bowes, and it was accordingly deter men met mined to in take th a fright d ottt of them. Accordiugly 4 nki,rula.q of p y ;. even one of tl p e oen a IN4ll.oses at the trill had said that'lie went, amongst otkera, to see the fun.— ( Hear.) The transactiolS i took place on Glaso-ow-green. One of the parties fired at 111‘Q uarry, another fired. ;at and wounded him ; but the joke was apeacilt, for it was with the wadding —the pist.2ls bavin- been loaded w i t h , powder only—he wounded; acid a third pa r ty, i n order to thit this . was the case immediately 235. 14s. 1 7s. 2.05. 20s.

Such was the tragedy which was said to haxe taken place 20 years age.-_( Hear. --The next case he would refer to was the death of the widow M'Pherson. How did this arise? Mr. Dunlop, who had a large factory, had ttated his de. termirratien to emplot there none hut females; but the men in Scotland wire not fond of seeing women weak hard— (Hear)—aud they were not pleased at seeing their places tilled by females. Many a joke respecting the matter had taken place, and th %WYE:, advised. as a remedy for the evil, to marry the women as soon 'as possib e.—( Hear, and a laugh.) The widaw, hoe ever, had three daughters who were employed in the factory, and had a number of lodgers who were also enployed there. She hers: If was an old bed-ridden woman, and a number of men used to assemble in her house on Saturday nights, in order to have share of the earning a ht the worm's, for they expended their earnings libera;ly a 9 the men. O n one n i g h t, h owever, whentt number of pers see s were assembled in her kitchen viitwee the widow by in lard, and when they had made too free with the whiskey, diet curse cf the WO. king Hear, hear)—a quarrel lead ensued, and two or three persons had fallen upon the ell woman, which, no doubt, assisted to sherten her for she died soon efterwards —( Hear, hear.) No apnaehensions had tsken niece, boaevir, in consequence —a:3 investigation had cecur ne ted, eor had there been any ieformation a ga i nst t h e Assnciati alear, hear.) 'Whatever was the motives by which parties were influenced in bringing forward this matter now—it was rot brought farwerd then. Another dark point which was mentioned iq the evidence was the word " colliery," bat he (Mr. M.Nish) had never seen the . word but once in the bouts etf the Association, and this had occurred when a sum u? money had been lent to the colliers who bad struck, and appeared in the old echedule of 1819, which was in the hands of Myrdeeir, who perhaps even then had in view the betrayal e%7 what was entrusted to him.--( Hear, hear.) In 1824 the first troubles had caremenced between the spinners and the masters as a body. The Combination Laws had been repealed in 1813, and the masters and men then combined ; but the combination of the masters was the better mode edepted, as they dropped the proscription of men. .In 1824 a strike for four months had taken place, and many of the operatives were reduced to the lowest point of misery —it was then that two cr three persons had fired at Graham —they were tried before the Justiciary, and hating been con victed, were flogged and banished; but there had not been, in - consequence of this, any blame at that time thrown upon the Association.(Hear, hear)—and yet Murdoch had at. tempted to impute this to the Committee—the then Secret Select Committee, of which he spoke. In consequence of the matters to which ho had referred, however, the masters had agreed to pay a certain price for labour, and they left it to the Associatio n to see that none paid a price below this, and he (Mr. M'Niah) wished they had continued to act thus in unison. --(Hear.) In 1826, however, the trade became very good, and the operatives became anxious for a rise of tvagts, but they allowed two years to elapse before they acted on this wish, and then when they sought for it the majority complied at once, but there were numbers who threatened re venge when it would be in their power to inflict it. In six months after the increase had been given a stagnation re curred, and the masters proposrd•a reduction, but they did not give the workmen time to consider their proposal, On a Wednesday they offered to take off a halfpenny, which was a reduction of 15 per cent. of the gross wages ; but a fast-day intervened, and on Friday night, when the trades met, it wes found that the majority of the masters had not proposed the reduction, and it was considered that it would rot be right to yield to the minority. On Satur day, however, those parties who had been noticed were thrown upon the streets, and on Monday the Associa tion was broken up. The men were turned out or their employments, but in a fortnight they agreed. to the terms of the masters, and again offered their seT vices, but they were not accepted; the masters then wanted to make a reduction of 35 per cent., and in the cases of some to re duce one-half from the gross amount of wages.—(hear, and cries of " Shame.") They proposed a principle which they knew would be the ruin of the operatives—the system of per centage.--( Hear ' hear.) T wo h un d re d sp i ndles were as much as a m an could do at a certain rate; but the masters %ranted that for every hundred spindles which were added, to make a reduction of one per cent.—( Hear.) So that if a man had double tho amount of work his wages would be reduced one-half; and if he went on at that rate the operative would. work for nothing, for he had his piecers to pay.—( Hear.) So that by this priaeiple two wheels would be thrown into one, and the number of persons employed would be reduced one-half.—(llear.) This was what caused the strike, but the members of the Association had conducted themselves with so much sobriety that the Sheriff himself had ex pressed himself surprised at the proper mode with which they had conducted themselves under the circumstances.-- ( Hear, hear.) At the commencement of the strike a Come: niittee of twelve had been appointed, the three presons who had before then composed the financial committee being rr erged into this. They all formed the Committee of Supply, Another Committee—a Guard Committee —had been ap rointed by the Association. It had been endeavoured to prove on the trial that this Guard Committee had been up painted by the Finance Committee ; but this was not the case; it had been appointed by the Association.--( Hear.) Most Associations knew what was the use of guards —two or three of them were placed en each work, in order that if any of the b nly took employment there, they might be thrown off the ailment, that they should not have both.—(Hear, hear.) And also that they should reason with the new hands, and dissuade th em from taking employment by a ll legal raeans ; bane if these new hands threatened the old hands with pistols, and if the old hands, under such circumstances, resented it, were they to blame ?—( Hear.) Ile would now refer to the af fair of Mile-end, where a mob of 5 Q,000 persons had assem bled to see the nobs coming out, and the police guarding them. Amongst the parties thus assembled was young Kidd, who ha; pened accidently to jostle one of the police ; but having been recognised as one of the cotton-spinners, they were rejoiced to have the opportunity of seizing him ; he was accordingly apprehended, and without having corn nritted any crime, was sentenced to three months' confine-. rent. His friends, however, inter fcred, and applied to Mr. Gamble, the agent of the Association, who applied to the Sheriff, who stated that the guards should be withdrawn from the factories, Mr. Gamble, accordingly, came to a meeting of the Association, and requested that the guards should h e withdrawn, which was agree d to, as a large minority had been already against the appointment of them. It was agreed also that they should assist the Sheriff in keeping the peace, and lt,is was afterwards made a matter of grave accusation against them. Kidd, however, was not imprisoned.__( Hear, hear.) Next to this was the affair of Oak Bank, complained of at the trial. This arose out of a number of persons having fol lowed a drunken piper, and some stones having been thrown, the accusation was brought now against the Association, although it had not been made at the time. He would now come to the last foul murder, which had been complained of ; it had not been proved who had committed it : no one could say how it had occurred ; but would to God they did know ! Sixteen weeks had elapsed since the strike, and the opera tives became anxious for a settlement of the matter. Mr. Denistoun was then canvassing the city, and the Committee sent to know if he, who had a large factory, would be instrumental in leading to an amicable adjustment.—( Hear.) He ( M`Nish) was one of the two persons appointed to meet Mr. Dennistoun—two neutral electors were appointed to go with them, and two influential men were with Mr. Dennistoun. The case was argued on a Friday, and a dispute arose between Mr. Deneistoun and hint (Mr. M‘Nish). It was arranged. that it could not be settled until Mr. Dick, who managed Mr. Dennistoun'a affairs, was present. On Saturday, accordingly, there was a meeting, when Mr. Dick was present, and he pledged himself that a meeting should take place between the men and the masters on the Monday. Let the meet ing, then, view the position of the men. Were they not anxious for a settlement of the affairs ? And was it their inte rest, then, on that very night, to take away the life of a man by the foul deed that had been complained of, for it was on that night that Smith had been fired at ?—( aar, hear.) He did not wish to accuse any one—but he would say, that at that time there were two or three hundred new hands_m en of dissipated characters —employed iu the factories; these men knew of the, ikelihood of a settlement, and that if it took place, they would be turned out of employment; and circumstances showed that this position was the true one, for many of them had since been turned out of employment. And he would now ask, was it not more the interest of the new hands than of the cid to have committed the foul deed ? 'But he would not accuse any parties. A minority of the masters also %Tithed to crush the Association, and to carry out their principles of a per-aentsge, and to ruin thus the opera tives ; but he would not accuse them—he would merely say that the meeting of the operatives and the masters had never t eken place. The election had followed in the succeeding week, but there had been no accusation made against the cotton spinners. Although a reward of 5001. had been offered for the murderers, and it was stated that the turn out cotton spinners were the parties, yet no steps had been then taken to arrest the Committee. On the Saturday on which the arrests were made, the Committee had in their hands 1001. to pay the idle men ; an d if t h ey h a d b een guilty, having such a sum in their hands, would they not have availed themselves of these means of escape? At six o' c l oc k on that night they paid those men , an d tey did not then go h ome ; they sat waiting for the Sheriff, and the great Miller. to seize th e con spirators,—( Hear and a laugh. Did this look like guilt? But the Guard Committee were in another house, and heard, as well as the Supply Committee, that they were to b 0 ar rested ; but they did not try to escape; they sat till twelve o'clock, when they were arrested, the Finance Committee having been arrested at ten o'clock. He would not dwell upon the usage which these men met with at Bridewell ; but he would make one remark as to the number 60 which had been made such a bugbear against the parties accused. Why, what did this mean? There were 59 shops aumbered from No. 1 upwards, and thee idle men received their allowance under the No. GO, which was the bit; shop, and the money paid theta was marked as paid to N. 60. The n in resnect to the " fre Itne" SO Much dwelt on at the trial; it was merely the travel ling line fel' the men who wished to go to other places, and on whieh it was shown that they were free, of debts to the Assn. elation. He himself had availed himself of this free line, as many others had done ; and it had no other meaning than that which he applied to it.—( Hear, hear.) He would now canclude by first stating that, he would be ready to reply t o any questions, which thrwe present might think fit to put to him.—( Cheers.), in In reply to several persons Mr. IVl;Nt:esdtt the s s so ta c t i e a d do t n h i a i t i retarence to secret oaths, he had joined the manner hg h a d stated; that the articles he had referred to were teed to him, but if any such oaths were taken they ware unknown to him; 'indeed so I;ttle had this subject im pressed itself on his mind, that he had not a'luded to it save in the way he now did.
